Sister Ting is particularly curious in this world. There are also a lot of granges in the Four Kings' Mansion, but I haven't been there since I grew so big. At most, during the Chinese New Year, she secretly saw the steward of the grange behind her mother's screen to kowtow to her mother and give her New Year's gifts.
Xue Mingyu is not restrained by Sister Ting, as long as there are girls and guards to follow, she must avoid the scorching hours of the sun every day and take Sister Ting around to take a look.
The ridges exuding the smell of earth and withered yellow grass clippings, the swarthy tenants who plough and work in a simple and pure manner, the spicy, sturdy, enthusiastic and cheerful women, and the girls with red cheeks and smiling smiles running around everywhere, in front of Sister Ting, are all fresh and unique pictures.
Xue Mingyu also took her to see all kinds of green vegetables in the greenhouse.
After Steward Chen sent news one after another, saying that the various prefectures that he usually dealt with had sent congratulatory gifts to the other courtyard, Xue Mingyu and Sister Ting commanded a group of bean sprouts soldiers to pick a cart of fresh cucumbers, beans, green vegetables and lettuce. After matching the style, let the steward send it to the other courtyard by car, and then let Steward Chen send it to the various mansions as a return gift.
Sister Ting looked at it and thought it was very interesting, "Don't talk about being a return gift, the New Year's gift is also good, and green vegetables are not cheaper than meat in winter." ā
"So good," Xue Mingyu clapped her hands appreciatively, "This year's New Year's gifts to the prefectures will give us vegetables." It's rare, it's fresh, and it's likable. ā
"Hey, hey." Sister Ting stuck out her tongue, no longer having the anxiety she had when her first suggestion was adopted.
is about to prepare New Year's goods, Xue Mingyu saw that the grange was open and the sunshine was good. Let no time follow the head of the village and buy a lot of fresh chicken, duck and fish. It's really a lot, and the big wagons have pulled a lot.
This year's harvest on the Grange is good, and this year's melons are about to start to be made, and it is estimated that they will be able to produce in April and May. Xue Mingyu also wanted to give some New Year's benefits to the tenants on Zhuangzi.
But everyone still doesn't understand what she buys so many chickens, ducks and fish for.
On this day, Xue Mingyu called the big and small girls, and some idle women from Zhuangzi came and asked people to bring a pot of meat. Everyone is also trying to see how the princess makes these meats.
Xue Mingyu asked the mother-in-law on the stove to cut the pork into pieces, rolled up her sleeves high, grabbed the salt and wiped it up, wiped the salt and smeared various spices.
Once you've done it, let the others do it themselves.
"Don't rub too much salt, too much is not good for your health." She didn't say that everyone didn't dare to wipe more, in this era, the purchase of salt and oil by the Zhuang family was counted as an expense. Not to mention the spices and stuff. This is why fish sauerkraut is so famous for its unique taste of sauerkraut, which is opened in the remote north of the city.
Anyway, since Xue Mingyu woke up in this world at the age of five, whether it is Xiliang or Yanjing, he has never seen anyone eat cured meat. Perhaps the reason for this is also because salt is expensive. Poor people can't afford to eat fresh meat, let alone cured bacon. Fresh meat can also be boiled into oil. Rich and noble families are not short of money, and they can buy whatever they want to eat at any time, and no one has ever researched wax goods.
Salted is actually not good for the body. But occasionally, Xue Mingyu still misses the flavor of those memories. It seems to be a fragment of fragments, confirming her soul that is different from ordinary people.
